Remember that mixed fractions are equivalent to the sum of the whole number and the fraction. Thus, we can start by simplifying the mixed fraction like so:
![14 \dfrac{52}{60} = 14 + \dfrac{52}{60} = \dfrac{892}{60} Now, realize that both 892 and 60 have a common factor of 4, which means that we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4. This gives us:[tex]\dfrac{892 \div 4 }{60 \div 4} = \dfrac{223}{15}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=14%20%5Cdfrac%7B52%7D%7B60%7D%20%3D%2014%20%2B%20%5Cdfrac%7B52%7D%7B60%7D%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7B892%7D%7B60%7D%3C%2Fp%3E%20%3Cp%3ENow%2C%20realize%20that%20both%20892%20and%2060%20have%20a%20common%20factor%20of%204%2C%20which%20means%20that%20we%20can%20divide%20both%20the%20numerator%20and%20the%20denominator%20by%204.%20This%20gives%20us%3A%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%5Btex%5D%5Cdfrac%7B892%20%5Cdiv%204%20%7D%7B60%20%5Cdiv%204%7D%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7B223%7D%7B15%7D)
Thus, 14 52/60 simplifies to 223/15.

a simple case for that would just be, using an equation with an imaginary value, let's do so

when you get a "solution" or zero with an "i" or an imaginary value, is just a way to say, there's really no solution, the function never touches the x-axis
A better estimate would be something that is closer to one you had before...
Julie bought (n) shirts. Each shirt cost $25. The total amount Julie spent on shirts was $125. How many shirts did Julie buy?
When you reflect a point across the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same, but the y-coordinate is transformed into its opposite (its sign is changed). If you forget the rules for reflections when graphing, simply fold your paper along the x-axis (the line of reflection) to see where the new figure will be located.p explanation:
